ISRO ICRB skill test shortlist 2026: zone-wise lists

Find your post and zone below and open its list. The vacancy figures are from the advertisement as revised by the corrigendum dated 11-08-2026; ISRO says the number of vacancies is provisional and may be increased or decreased.

Every list prints the same skill test date (01.11.2026, Sunday) and reporting time (8.00 AM). The Document Verification date, time and venue differ by list, as below. In the three Thiruvananthapuram lists the Document Verification venue and the skill test venue are different places.

• The skill test is qualifying. Final selection is based on the marks scored in the written test (CBT), among the candidates who qualify in the skill test.
• The advertisement says candidates are shortlisted for the skill test on the basis of written test performance, in the ratio of 1:5 (maximum) to the category-wise number of vacancies, with a minimum of 10 candidates (an aggregate minimum of 10 for JPA/Stenographer). For reserved vacancies, distinct/additional candidates are shortlisted in the ratio of 1:5 (maximum), without regard to the reserved candidates, if any, shortlisted under the UR category.
• If enough candidates for the select list and wait list do not qualify the skill test, ISRO will shortlist additional candidates for a skill test in the ratio of 1:5, to the extent of the shortfall.
• Ties in the written test are broken by marks in General Intelligence & Reasoning (Assistant/UDC) or English Language & Comprehension (JPA/Stenographer), and then by age, the older candidate first.
• ISRO reserves the right to change the qualifying criteria for the written test and skill test for administrative reasons.
• The advertisement does not give a date for the final select list. It says all further communications will be through the candidate's registered e-mail ID or the ISRO website.

• Original documents: the advertisement says candidates have to produce all original documents in proof of details furnished in their online applications at the time of the Skill Test. The shortlists themselves print no list of documents.
• NOC: candidates employed under Central/State Government, Public Sector Undertakings, Autonomous Bodies etc. must submit a No Objection Certificate from the employer, at the time of the Skill Test or as and when called for. A candidate who fails to submit the NOC in original at the time of the Skill Test will not be permitted to appear in it, TA will not be paid, and such candidates will not have any claim for participation in the further recruitment process. Any false claim in this regard noticed at any stage of recruitment will result in disqualification of candidature/employment. A candidate who gained or changed employment after applying must inform the employer and submit the NOC at the Skill Test. ISRO's FAQ says candidates working in the private sector/MNC do not need to submit an NOC.
• PwBD: candidates applying for a post reserved for PwBD have to submit a self-attested copy of the Disability Certificate in the prescribed format at the time of the Skill Test.
• False information: if any information furnished online is found to be false, the candidate will not be allowed for the Skill Test and TA will not be paid.
• TA: candidates attending the Skill Test are reimbursed to-and-fro second-class train fare by the shortest route from the city given in the online application to the place of the Skill Test. No TA is paid for the written test.
• Canvassing: the advertisement says canvassing in any form will be a disqualification.
• Call letters: the advertisement says intimation of call letters for the Skill Test is sent through e-mail/SMS only; no hard copy is sent. It also says all further communications will be through the registered e-mail ID/ISRO website only, asks candidates to check their e-mail (including spam/junk folders) regularly and visit the ISRO website from time to time, and says ISRO will not be responsible for non-receipt of any intimation sent or provided that way.
